Condor Cycles - Pls Read

Hello all,

I worked in Condor as a Sales Assistant for a few months a few years ago. Around 4pm on an ordinary weekday, a little black kid (no more than 10 years old) popped in to have a look around.

After having a wander, the kid asked the owner of Condor (Grant Young) if he could have a sweet (there was a basket of hard candies next to the till).

Mr Young said 'Go ahead' and - as the kid left - said 'Don't let the door hit you on the way out, you black bastard.'

I remind you, this was a kid of less than 10 years old.

I offer this for your consciences. You decide. Do you want to business with these racists anymore?

That's slander you know. You've directly named someone and called them a racist. And you have offered no proof that the event took place beyond the word of a newly registered user who no-one else would appear to know (at the moment).

And this is after only working there for a "few months, a few years ago". That's taking having a chip on your shoulder a bit far, non?

And the post got reported. Unsurprising really. It won't be deleted as I don't moderate based on taste. Spam gets deleted, it's obvious and we can all agree what it is... but shitty posts are just shitty posts and whether or not they should be deleted is very subjective. Not for me to do.

You can all just have at him instead ;)

What's your real issue with Condor? Can't afford a bike from them? Begrudge a shop doing well? Generally just pissed that you're inferior on a monetary success level to Grant Young?

Grow up and fuck off.
